ETA correction. It's actually MG's contractors digging up the newly laid road surface again 🤦 That all nicely eats into the profit for MG. It’s almost time for the regulator to set the next tariff isn’t it? Cynical? Moi? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are just on a simple timer.
